In such an element, you probably let want the metrics to come from Arial, since that’s what all the text is rendered with. This is a great question, as it poses: if the furthest fallback font is an emoji font for example, it might have vastly different sizing compared to, say, a wide fantasy-type font. I would assume most authors would pick sensible fallbacks to keep this issue at a minimal. Additionally, this would probably gracefully degrade, but this would testing, as I am only assuming. Not to mention CKJ writing systems could trigger quite different edge cases. -- GitHub Notification of comment by chriskirknielsen Please view or discuss this issue at https://github.com/w3c/csswg-drafts/issues/4780#issuecomment-588038140 using your GitHub account
